Virus Protection
To minimize virus vulnerability, Vivid q is configured with a minimal set of open ports and with all network services, not actively used by the system, closed down. This significantly reduces the risk of a virus attack on Vivid q. GE is continuously judging the need for additional actions to reduce vulnerability of equipment. This includes vulnerability scanning of our products and evaluation of new security patches for the third-party technology used. Microsoft and other security patches that address serious issues with Vivid q will be made available to customers after GE verification of those patches.
